That was my first LSU game to attend. We drove a little over 3 hours to get to it after New Years Eve. The rain sucked. It was cold. I was super excited to see the Tigers play. Still had a good time watching even though we lost.

I think around six state championship games were played on that field, and maybe one other college game before that, if my memory is close to correct. Yeah, that field was arse.

Yes. Horrible memory and plenty of Penn State fans around here to rub it in.
It was the "perfect storm." Yes, FHSAA played all of their state championship games on that field. The field was designated to get new turf before the bowl games.
They did not expect rain, as December is pretty dry around here. Obviously the new turf did not take in all the rain. It was the first time EVER raining on the Citrus Bowl game, and it just got really bad.
Cold, rain, and just a complete shite show.
